Winery review:
Cabernet Sauvignon rich tannins, black currant, and smooth French oak flavors. 12.5% alcohol. 0% residual sugar.
My review:
This wine was part of the White Barrel Originals Flight at White Barrel's restaurant in Blacksburg. I was struck how smooth this wine tasted for being such a full body red. Possibly the French oak? I enjoyed the tannic flavor and the dryness of the wine, but it was not overdown. Also, it is noticeably darker and richer than the Cab Franc and also slightly more tannic and dry. Very pleasant overall.
I did not have this wine with any food.
